Towards healthy aging
With respect to coral minerals, we have committed to contribute healthy aging by providing raw materials with high added value with an extensive knowledge on food, agriculture, forestry, livestock and fishery industry. Based on the 23 years of research on coral biomineralization, we also provide valuable information and advice for product development.
It has been almost 60 years since minerals are believed to be a source of life. We aim to provide the latest information with advice from a wide range of researchers, to strive towards healthy aging for all.

Hydrogen Coral Calcium, Sala
This coral calcium produces active hydrogen that provides antioxidants. Hydrogen is bonded by calcinating coral calcium under specific conditions, which leads to the ingestion of well-balanced minerals with the hydrogen.

Filtering for purified water (purified mineral components) and activated water
The coral organism which lives in water and has a body temperature lower than humans is said to be an ideal mineral source, that can supplement many minerals together with calcium. The different elements in coral interact and work in cooperation with each other. Of special note, calcium ion and magnesium ion in coral are known to be highly soluble in the water with an excellent absorption rate.
Coral Bio-RF
Coral Bio-RF is coral sand sourced from weathered reef coral from the seas around Okinawa which has been sorted, dried and sterilized. Coral minerals make water delicious and high quality. There are two types of Coral Bio-RF with different granularity, RF-I and RF-II.
[Key uses]
Water purification / active water filter material, functional shower, warm bath filter etc.

Soil conditioner
Supports the growing of crops that are less susceptible to climate fluctuations and failure caused by continuous cropping. It also extends the harvest period and increases volume, as well as improving taste. Because coral is porous, it has strong water retention and drainage properties. It also contains trace minerals that serve as nutrients for microorganisms, supporting an increase in actinomycetes in the soil, and ultimately enhancing soil richness.
Calcium amino acid
A nutritional enhancer made from fermented coral calcium and plant extracts, that is aged with lactic acid bacteria. 100% natural ingredients. Contains calcium and magnesium, soluble silicon and strontium etc.
[Key uses]
Nutritional enhancer for leaves, stems, roots and soil
Soil Balancer
This soil balancer is produced from Okinawa coral. Mixing porous coral grains of various granularity into the soil improves drainage and neutralizes acidic soil. As it contains several minerals in balance such as calcium and magnesium, it strengthens crop resistance to insects and disease. The soil balance is desalinated and dried so there are no salt side effects.
[Key uses]
Soil improver for fields and others
